Wait for the whistle to start squirtin', then <span style="font-weight:bold;">give 'em hell</span>. A limited amount of water bombs will also be available.<br /><br />After the mighty fight we will indulge in whatever baked goods, libations, and / or organic non-genetically modified locally raised produce the hippies might bring. ALSO: Cupcakes!<br /><br />Invite your friends. Or enemies. You know, whatever.<br /><br />RSVP / Invite Your Comrades: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=247602025269769">https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=247602025269769</a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><br />RULES:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">1) BYOA</span> Show up at 2:00 sharp! Bring your own ammunition. Ammunition can include: squirt guns of any kind loaded with H20. We ask that you fill up beforehand. Not allowed: guns of any other kind including potato guns, BB guns, semi-automatic rifles, etc. If you bring water balloons you're responsible for helping to clean up whatever rubbish you leave in your wake.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">2) Wait</span> on your team's side (grass only) till the whistle blows. Don't shoot anyone until the game starts. Don't shoot innocent bystanders or anyone who isn't obviously playing. <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">3) Don't shoot people in the face</span>, or other sensitive areas unless you are SURE they will like it.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">4) You can refill</span> at any of the tubs or in the bathrooms in the middle of the park. No shooting anyone within 20 ft. of the bathroom unless you're a jerk. Bring your own refill tub if you want to be super efficient number one!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">5) As with any war, kids</span> on the battle field might not be a good idea. <br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><br />6) Cupcakes!</span> (while supplies last)<br /><br /><img src="http://rlv.zcache.com/tinkle_sprinkles_funny_cupcake_photosculpture-p1530969472172086053s98_400.jpg"><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS</span> (asked by nobody)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">WHY?</span><br />Why not?<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><br />NO REALLY WHY?</span><br />This battle has long been underway, ever since San Francisco became a mecca for two very disparate critically-thinking, yet somewhat lazy social groups whose largest similarity is that they both enjoy water guns and grass. Also, it's Mirabelle's birthday.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">WHAT IF I ARRIVE LATE?</span><br />You may miss the fight. You may also not get a cupcake.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">WHAT IF I CAN'T DECIDE IF I'M A HIPSTER OR A HIPPIE?</span><br />Go with whichever group you hate the least.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">WAIT, WHAT IF I'M REALLY NOT A HIPPIE OR A HIPSTER?</span><br />Show up in an ape costume and surprise both of them.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">WHAT SHOULD I BRING?</span><br />Yourself, your hiptastic or hippietastic attire, your water gun fully loaded (and please please please not with patchouli!), water balloons, a large tub for extra water / refills would be very helpful.Mirabelle Joneshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08223907049872512819noreply@blogger.com0
